Safely Arrived


Friends,

We have arrived safely in San Pedro. The flights went well and we got into the Kellogg Center at about 6:00 p.m. We have high-speed internet here, so we will do our best to stay in touch. It´s much hotter than usual. When we landed the temp was 94! Since getting here we have had dinner, saw the area, and had ice cream. While getting ice cream the team saw its first real glimpse of the poverty of this area: kids begging for a spoonful of ice cream to be placed in their open hands.

Pray for us as we get settled, plan for our work, and begin the process of seeing what God has in store for all of us.

Que Dios te bendiga,

Peter+
